Sometimes I can’t tell whether a question here is genuine and the author is interested in the answers, or whether they just copy-paste something to keep people busy. How am I supposed to approach that?

The goal is to make og posts sprinkled with some cross posts until the threadverse is bigger. I often find interesting articles on reddit first to share here.
Btw, I wanted to say sorry for my (now edited to be mainly crossed out) sibling comment here about you. That was a bit harsh and after paying some more attention to where you pop up, I’ve changed my opinion. Not 100% but enough to say that was really far from being the complete picture. And not amongst my best comments here.
Yes, your username is very recognizable as well. You also pull in a lot of posts. I have a bit of a mixed experience with that. Some I think are sh*t and I wish they had stayed on Reddit. Some are good and I appreciate them. I’m not really sure what to make of this. If you read the articles and curate them before re-posting, I think it’s a good thing. With some of the posts I’ve interacted and some don’t attract any engagement and don’t start any discussions. I think those mainly add empty noise to this place. It’s a bit mixed for me. (Edit: please don’t feel offended or anything, this is just my opinion. Not necessarily correct and not set in stone.)Edit: Btw since you’re here: How do people who post a lot handle notifications or the comment section? Do you come back and engage at times, or are these posts more fire and forget? I genuinely don’t know but I assume it’d be thousands of notifications if you had turned them on?
Piefed helps a lot with that. Usually I will read the first 10 or 20 comments, then disable notifications. At that time, usually the ball is already rolling, and other people will keep the conversation going.
